Doing business in China, negotiating with Chinese business partners, relocating to China for work... In all these situations, you would of course like to know more about the Chinese business etiquette and business culture. Cultural missteps could indeed harm your relationship with Chinese business partners or colleagues.
Communication problems arise not only because of the language barrier, but also because of the underlying cultural differences. Understanding the Chinese way of thinking will help you to better understand typical Chinese behaviours, to communicate more efficiently and to be more succesful in business.
